Q:

A sum is equally invested in two different schemes on CI at the rate of 15% and 20% for two years. If interest gained from the sum invested at 20% is Rs. 528.75 more than the sum invested at 15%, find the total sum?

A) Rs. 7000 B) Rs. 4500
C) Rs. 9000 D) Rs. 8200
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 9000

Explanation:

Let Rs. K invested in each scheme

Two years C.I on 20% = 20 + 20 + 20x20/100 = 44%

Two years C.I on 15% = 15 + 15 + 15x15/100 = 32.25%

Now,

(P x 44/100) - (P x 32.25/100) = 528.75

=> 11.75 P = 52875

=> P = Rs. 4500

 

Hence, total invested money = P + P = 4500 + 4500 = Rs. 9000.
